About us

Our team of experts have been working in the Edtech space for a combined total of over 40 years. Within the team we foster a culture of customer obsession. What this means for us is that we build real, mutually beneficial relationships with the schools we work with. We are not about simply delivering a product or service. We aim to make the digital transformation process as hassle free and secure as possible.

Whether this is as simple as a new device being ready for a student to use as soon as it’s switched on, or making troubleshooting and support as customer centric and efficient as possible – we are constantly setting ourselves challenges of continuous improvement, so that we’re not just providing an Edtech service, we’re the best in the market at it. Our symbiotic approach to everything that we do has meant that our schools are not just customers, they are ambassadors for us, and us for them. When their students are empowered with the latest technology and succeeding, so are we.

Our Team

No matter where your school is located, we have a member of the team close by. With offices located in Dublin, Kilkenny and Galway, Olive for Education is perfectly positioned to service all of our customers, nationwide.

As we continue to grow, we’re expanding our team with talented people who share our commitment to innovation, partnership, and exceptional service.
